About Me

René PleinAir, a Dutch artist very committed to painting every day directly from the subject without significant corrections, glazes or studio refinements. Consequently, René's paintings have a faithfulness to nature and a sense of authenticity which is immediately striking. René documents his surroundings without embellishment. Despite René's difficult working conditions, there are many painterly subtleties to his oil paintings with interesting brushwork, rubbed, scraped and textured paint and of course, close observation of a great variety of landscape subjects.
